Design of an Automated Seed-Sowing Device for the Agricultural Industry

There are many working ideas for automating every manufacturing and related area today, but there have only been a few attempts in the agricultural sectors. Currently, almost every industry has prioritized the automation of tasks that are currently performed manually. In the field of agriculture, an idea was developed to see if several small autonomous machines could be more effective than traditional giant tractors and human forces. This article attempts to design and build a machine to automate critical activities such as slogging, sowing, and soil covering in order to reduce human effort (sowing process - Fatigue due to continuous bending) and speed up the process. Numerous drive systems, including wheeled hybrid and reconfigurable mechanisms, have been extensively researched. The propulsion mechanism for wheeled locomotives is typically bio-inspired and offers several advantages. The main aim of this paper is to design an efficient and low-cost machine that can perform multi-tasks like plowing, seed sowing, and covering of the soil using technologies. The paper focuses on the synthesis and analysis of a mechanism capable of moving across any terrain with the least amount of difficulty and effort. Mechanisms for soil covering, seeding, and slogging on a variety of terrains have been developed in this work.
